I was hoping more for EWR-TXL and EWR - HAM as the 763 flies these routes, too!

There is no formal announcement that I know of. Take a look at the article quoted on post #84 for info: 777ER delivered by mid year (probably delayed), 763 conversion starts in April (now May) and conversion of the first 772 starts in the fourth quarter with a planned return to service in the first quarter of 2018.
